Hi all,
Any clues to my problem ?
i have a grande 1.4 8v 2006, My engine light has came on and vehicle has gone into limp mode and the rev counter display has stopped working (just stays at zero revs) !!! I have put a code reader on it and getting 2 codes
P0335 & P0335pd (looks like a little pd at end) I know this is pointing to the crankshaft sensor but on 2 occasions when reseting module it has been fine for ten mins, rev counter working, no engine light, no limp mode ! then just stalls and when restart ! its back in limp mode !
Can a crankshaft sensor work one min then not work the nxt ?

Any info on these symptoms would be grately apreciated !!!!
Thank you
:cry::cry::cry:

Yes.
CPS are renowned for doing this.
Usually they are magnetic, so it's possible that it may have picked up some dirt.
As a first port of call, you could try cleaning it.

Also i'm not sure about the 8v, but the 16v has one on the camshaft also.
There's a self adaptive learning routine.
Goes something like, briefly rev it to +4500rpm, let it drop, do this twice more.
 
Thanx for info ?
I have tried this but still no good think best
Go buy the sensor and see if it works !
